hello everyone iv'e been lurking for a few weeks now. I have a force 85 hp m# 856x9b and the carbs are all flooding i've taken them all off and cleaned four times now the float seat are holding ( i push the float up and can't blow threw it) so my question is how in the world can these things be flooding with the seat closed? had the pump doesn't get hard. also could the fuel pump cause this problem? oh and i've oreded a repair book that should be here this week. thanks scott
